Surface complexation modelling of uranyl adsorption onto kaolinite based clay minerals using FITEQL 3.2

The aim of this study is to explain how the kaolinite-based clay minerals adsorb hexavalent uranium (uranyl ion), and to model uranyl adsorption based on inner-sphere surface complexation with the kaolinite edge hydroxyl sites and outer-sphere complexation with the permanent charge sites...
